I don’t love the Imriel books quiiiiite as much as I adore the Phedre books…but they are still pretty yummy. I do think Carey might have done a bit more with Sidonie’s feelings about having been tricked by Astegal. Sidonie isn’t that much of an ice queen. Also, I hope Carey follows up on some of her hints…maybe some Alais books, or even a Ghanim book? And where the heck are more Banewreaker books?!
